G&A Partners’ President and CEO John W. Allen offers insights on prioritizing talent during current economic shifts in the Forbes article, “Nine Strategies to Help Companies Navigate Tariffs and Sustain Growth.”

The expert panel article discusses strategies from the Forbes Human Resources Council on how HR leaders can help their companies navigate the challenges of tariffs and global trade uncertainty to remain agile and sustain growth.

“HR leaders should help the executive team make long-term decisions related to people, and not short-term ones based on macroeconomics or government initiatives,” says Allen. “We invest heavily in recruiting, training, and nurturing top talent. Too often, leaders jettison good people in the face of short-term challenges and then spend even more to replace the talent when the situation improves.”
